Amazon.com Product Description
The Canon EOS Rebel 2000 is an affordable, lightweight, andfull-featured automatic 35mm SLR for both beginning and advancedamateur photographers. It offers a host of special modes for specificshooting situations, including full auto, manual, night scene,portrait, landscape, and more. It also has shutter-speed priority andaperture priority modes--although most users will inevitably leave thecamera in full auto mode a majority of the time and the cameraperforms very well that way. Just remember that the empty rectanglesymbol on the mode dial is for full auto.

Some other basic features include an impressive seven-point autofocussystem, LCD panel with extensive information display, three exposuremetering modes (evaluative, partial, and centerweighted), autoexposure bracketing, a multiple exposure function, and depth-of-fieldpreview. The autofocus system is incredibly responsive, and includesseven focusing points that can be set individually for super creativeshooting. In other words, using the LCD panel as a guide, you can setthe camera to automatically focus on the far right focus point (or anyof the other points) so your main subject doesn't have to be in themiddle of the frame to be in focus in a snap.

In fact, most settings can be adjusted in creative ways on the Rebel2000, like the exposure level, which can be set to overexpose orunderexpose up to two full stops for tricky lighting situations whereyou might want to fool the camera's metering system. It also has asmall, built-in pop-up flash, plus a hot shoe for an additional flashunit. Overall, we found this camera to be smartly designed with anattractive look and a comfortable feel.

5 out of 5 stars Great Camera for beginners   August 21, 2007

Unlike a lot of reports about grainy pictures and what not; this camera is really top notch! This is my first camera and I got some really great shots already, the grainy complaint was probably due to people using a higher ISO and not knowing much about camera settings. You'll definitely want a zoom lens though, the 28-80mm is nice for normal everyday things, but if you really want to experiment try looking for a 28-300 or even a 70-300mm lens.

Definitely recommended for amateurs.

I had this camera for years before it was stolen and I replaced it with a digital Canon SLR. I am still amazed at the abuse I put my Rebel 2000 through. It has a nice light body, a great auto feature, and easy-enough to use manual functions. And because of the popularity (and rightly so) of digital these days, you can pick one up for a fantastic price, even brand spanking new.


5 out of 5 stars Excellent Camera: Easily beats a Digital camera for its price   September 18, 2005

I have had this camera for about 4 yrs now - I take it on all my business travels.

Whenever I get a chance to go out on on the weekends, I take this camera and my Sony camcorder in my backpack, roam the streets of the new city and shoot pictures. The pictures that I shoot from this camera are just awesome - no matter whatever experiment I do with it.

Most useful features:
1. Aperture control with Depth of field preview
- Lets to focus the foreground and blur the background
2. Shutter speed control upto infinity
- Lets you control the amount of time for which the shutter can be kept open
3. It is pretty rugged, dont try dropping it :) I have used it to shoot pics from 'Maid of the mist' in Niagara falls and I almost thought that I was going to lose it. But it worked liked a charm

Negatives
- Bulky, but you will get used to it, it always gets attention
- Cost of developing film - What I do these days is to just get the photos on a CD, then develop only those photographs that are good.

Why is this camera better than a Digital Camera ?
- If you are spending $200 on a Digital Camera, I feel that the SLR is way far too ahead of any Digital camera in that price range
- If you are spending $1000 on a Digital Camera, a Digital SLRs are very mature today - worth buying.

Ideally, I would buy this SLR, take this whenever I really want to take good photographs, then I would also want to have a $100 Kodak Digital Camera for casual shots. This would mean an ideal combination.

If you are buying this SLR, you can also consider buying a Film/Photo scanners (available for less than $150 now) - which lets you scan the negatives/positives without even going for a cheap CD print. From the reviews what I read on amazon, these scanners must be amazing.
